Regarding your query on

Also, please refrain from editing the article directly, except to make minor corrections to spelling and grammar, and to add citations to reliable sources that are independent of you. If you try to do anything more substantive, your changes will likely be reverted. Instead, you should propose a change on the article talk page Talk:Barry De Vorzon. You can use the {{edit COI}} template at the beginning of your proposal to cause your request to be listed on a category page that other editors monitor. ~Anachronist (talk) 18:50, 21 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, Bdevorzon, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions.

I noticed that one of the first articles you edited was Barry De Vorzon, which appears to be dealing with a topic with which you may have a conflict of interest. In other words, you may find it difficult to write about that topic in a neutral and objective way, because you are, work for, or represent, the subject of that article. Your recent contributions may have already been undone for this very reason.

To reduce the chances of your contributions being undone, you might like to draft your revised article before submission, and then ask me or another editor to proofread it. See our help page on userspace drafts for more details. If the page you created has already been deleted from Wikipedia, but you want to save the content from it to use for that draft, don't hesitate to ask anyone from this list and they will copy it to your user page.

One rule we do have in connection with conflicts of interest is that accounts used by more than one person will unfortunately be blocked from editing. Wikipedia generally does not allow editors to have usernames which imply that the account belongs to a company or corporation. If you have a username like this, you should request a change of username or create a new account. (A name that identifies the user as an individual within a given organization may be OK.)

In addition, if you receive, or expect to receive, compensation for any contribution you make, you must disclose your employer, client, and affiliation to comply with our terms of use and our policy on paid editing.

Here are some pages that you might find helpful:

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your messages on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically insert your username and the date. If you need help, visit the Teahouse, check out Wikipedia:Questions, ask me on my talk page, or ask your question on this page and then place {{Help me}} before the question. Again, welcome! -- Marchjuly (talk) 21:07, 21 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Please also take a look at

claim of ownership or final editorial control over it. Wikipedia articles are written about subjects, but they don't belong to subjects. All article content is subject to relevant Wikipedia policies and guidelines regardless of what the subjects of the articles might want. Attempts will be made to make sure article content does comply and remains compliant with relevant policies and guidelines, and fix things asap when it doesn't; however, requests for changes that clearly aren't in compliance will almost certainly end up being declined. -- Marchjuly (talk) 21:33, 21 May 2024 (UTC)[reply
